Long Live Little Free Libraries!
By: Sadie spiller

            Picture this: You are strolling down the sidewalk and you see something strange.  It looks like a birdhouse, but it’s much larger. You move closer and you realize that it has books inside.  What could it be?  A Little Free Library!

            A Little Free Library works like this: it starts off with 10 to 30 books in it.  Then you get one of your books and trade it out for one the books in the Little Free Library.  Once you put your book in the library, it doesn't belong to you anymore,  but...you do get to keep the book that you took out.  This part is optional, but I always like to put my name on the inside of the cover, so the person who gets that book next knows who had it before them.

            I think Little Free Libraries are amazing and I visit them frequently. However, I have started to notice something about them.  Most of the  books in the libraries are adult books, which leads me to think that a lot of  kids don't know about the Little Free Libraries.  I want to encourage you to visit them, so we can boost the amount of kids books in the libraries.

            Want to learn more about Little Free Libraries?  Go to LittleFreeLibrary.org to find a map of Little Libraries near you, and learn about how to get your own Little Free Library.

The weather forecast for today is:      It will be a cloudy day with a chance of bacon a nd raining soda. The temperature going to be 34* out and watch out chocolate puddles, the ground is going to be frozen popsicles.  Make sure you wear a coat,  rain boots and an umbella. Be very careful because you don't want to step in th e chocolate.   You might get some luck,  it’s  supposed to become a little warm . Be careful you don't want to get hit by  bacon do you ? We will be having P.E and we are going to be playing 4 square volleyball, I wonder who is going to win ? In science, we learned about matters. It is really fun because we got to guess what we thought were in the cups.

Teaching you about candy!- Noël Did you know that Oreos are good but have lots of stuff that you don't know about! Oreos are a delicious cookie for dessert anytime. But did you know that oreos have Wheat and Soy in them! They are also 140 calories per 2 cookies! They also have Salt,Chocolate,Sugar,Palm/Canola Oil,Leavening, Riboflavin and Unbleached Flour. What even is Riboflavin!!! Hey it's airheads! But Airheads have lots of sugar and obviously aren't good for you! Air heads are amazing and chewy! Did you know that they are made in a place that processes flour! Here are some weird words that are in the ingredients: maltodextrin, hydrogenated, artificial,and manufactured. I think I would rather have Oreos than Air Heads. because I like Air Heads but they are too chewy! Did you know that many people don't even know about how much sugar really affects you! If you have too much that's bad but some people need sugar to stay alive! What would you ra...

Kayliana: Weekly Update

Weekly Update Written By: Kayliana Harris Here is a quick recap of things we have been doing throughout this week. Writing: In writing we have been working on a piece about colonial times. Each student was assigned to a specific job in colonial times. Then, we researched our job and found out as much information as possible on colonial times. We wrote and typed our body paragraphs. Recently, we have been brainstorming ideas for our introduction paragraph. We have not yet wrote it but we are very close. That is what we have been doing in writing. Math : In math we have been working hard on fractions. We have learned how to make an equivalent fraction, simplify a fraction, and how to change an improper fraction into a mixed number (and the other way around). Most recently we have learned how to add and subtract fractions. That is what we are currently doing in math. Social Studies: In social studies we have been learning about colonial times. We are doing a colony simu...
